First, you need to find the sales during 2005, which will include both cash and credit sales. Accounts receivable collected will not be recorded in the income statement. For the expenses, we need to include all as it is accrual-basis. However, for the rental expense, we will calculate only for the rental expense from July 1, 2005 until Dec. 31, 2005 (6 months).
